NetJets Adds La Mole to Phenom 300 Operations

[Aviation Today April 28, 2014] NetJets Europe has received approved certification from the French South-Eastern Civil Aviation Directorate to begin operating its Phenom 300 aircraft at La Mole airport in southern France.

La Mole requires a special authorization because of varying winds, high terrain, heavy helicopter traffic and strict aircraft performance requirements. NetJets pilots went through a special training program with the French civil aviation agency in order to obtain the authorization.

“It is a very busy time of the year for NetJets, with many of our customers wishing to holiday in St. Tropez over the summer season. We have assessed their flight patterns and listened to their feedback, and we are delighted to be able to offer La Mole to our Phenom 300 owners as an additional airport for their consideration," said Marine Eugence, head of sales at NetJets Europe.
